This book examines the concept of individual criminal responsibility for serious        violations of international law, i.e. aggression, genocide, crimes against humanity        and war crimes. Such crimes are rarely committed by single individuals. Rather,        international crimes generally connote a plurality of offenders, particularly in the        execution of the crimes, which are often orchestrated and masterminded by        individuals behind the scene of the crimes who can be termed        'intellectualperpetrators'. For a determination of individual guilt and        responsibility, a fair assessment of the mutual relationships between those persons        is indispensable.By setting out how to understand and apply concepts such as joint        criminal enterprise, superior responsibility, duress, and the defence of superior        orders, this work provides a framework for that assessment. It does so by bringing        to light the roots of these concepts, which lie not merely in earlier phases of        development of international criminal law but also in domestic law and legal        doctrine. The book also critically reflects on how criminal responsibility has been        developed in the case lawof international criminal tribunals and courts. It thus        illuminates and analyses the rules on individual responsibility in international        law.
